For the first time in the history of Sri Lanka, Laksala has signed a business agreement to open a showroom in the United States.
It is our duty and responsibility to introduce local and foreign markets for the traditional products of local handicraftsmen, strengthening the concept of building a “people-centered economy” enshrined in the President’s “Vision for Country Building Prosperity” policy statement.
The main objective of this is to replenish Laksala’s sales revenue, which has been reduced by 90% due to non-arrival of foreign tourists due to the current Kovid epidemic situation, under a new business plan and to empower local producers.
